10 very pleasant speAke r and 10 earnest
and forcible in her delivery. Her ad'
dress was In favor OF two bflls, one TO
introduce book on Hygiene Philoso'
ply In the schools and to raise the age
Of consent for the rnin of females to 10
years.
shedwelt upon the use of teaching the
Young the bad use OF Intoxicating
liquore from scientific principles. The
lady dwelt also more particularly upon
the Law to raise the age OF consent N
female Under our present law y
female can content to her own ruin Of
the age of Z, and the bill proposes TO
raise this TO Is, Tbs lady pictured the
condition this would bring about In
very glowing colors. She did not con-
tend very strongly for the bill In Its ex'
treme, but said abe was willing to take
what they could get.
The address made quite an impress
sion on the members, and something
will certainly be done. 1t 10 the genera
impression that the bill will not pass II
its present form, but that the age vii
be placed at either IA or ID. That Their
is great need OF the passage OF this Law
il apparent 10 any one living In WA
mingtop, where young girls infest tn
streets and have been led astray by maj
older than them selves.
The Senate took decided stand upol

opposing the passage OF two bills II

that the Levy Court Of Sussex Count!
would not authorizethe building of an
of the roads aud the only thing tina
would result from the passage OF th
bills would be surveyors bills and iun
bering OF the law books. Both bill
were defeated and 1t is very likely tbs
nc more road bills will 60 through thi
session.

RESTRICTED considerably and will onl
apply TO Sussex, and . part OF kel
